With health-benefit cost inflation putting pressure on payrolls and budgets, your time-off programs can be a critical source of savings.  The Mercer Survey on Health, Productivity and Absence Management renamed the Survey on Absence and Disability Management sheds light on the growing use of program management initiatives and plan integration – and resulting improvements in administrative efficiency and cost control.

 

Encompassing both occupational and nonoccupational programs, the survey explores the effectiveness of a variety of incidental absence and disability management techniques. In 2010, 473 employers participated.

 

The report covers vacation plans, paid-time-off banks, sick leave plans, disability benefits, workers’ compensation programs, and health and productivity management. It is the most comprehensive, credible source of information available on plan design, costs, and management trends.

Cost

The report can be purchased for US$250. You can purchase it by credit card and download a PDF of the 48-page report immediately.
